For me, if i really want to put my video to let people watch, i always watch others video of how it is done and try to make almost the same angles, and by watching it all the time, you can learn your mistake and just watch other videos from gtplanet and learn from it, then when you think your video is almost exactly like theirs, then send it and let people watch it.

ill have to agree on this one too. i remember when i first joined, alot of the gurus still posted alot on this site. alot of it is newbs now. you might look at my profile and see taht i havent posted alot, but that doesnt make me a newb tho, i have been on back when night_gripper was showin off and pissin everyone on the forum off. Idk things on teh site jus dont seem that fun and entertaining anymore. It will probably change when gt4 comes out tho

I'd like to say just a few things on the discussion of the type of content being introduced and administered in most of the forums on the ever-prevalent GTPlanet. I have been a surveyer of this grand site of ours for quite some time now. And, would like to think that I have been putting forth an effort towards making our site, "The" Gran Turismo site to go to for any info. ever needed by people with problems. I take pride in knowing all that I can about the topic of GT and am always open to new information on what is what in the commonplace. But, there is yet places I can commit my anger to. For instance, the forum discussions on the validity of other forums on certain topics beiing in the right topic area. To this I can only say one thing, "I put my faith in the moderators to judge whether or not the forum is in the correct area." I do admit, it gets very annoying to find 100's of new forums that involve questions already asked or totally unrelated to the Forum topic. But, no matter how hard you try, there will always be this. New people to the server come in not knowing what to do, so instead of blaming them, help them.

Now, as for some of the other such debates amongst my bretheren in the GTP community, I see hateful disregard for other's beliefs. In order to prove someone wrong, you must have some valuable information. Video is the best way to prove them wrong. So, unless you have some kind of valuable information that could prove them wrong, don't post a remark. Your thoughts aren't facts until you can prove them.

Recently, the quality of not just the Drifting forum, has decreased. I blame myself for some obscure comments in the past, but I'm going to change that now. I say we ban together and help this epidemic of newcomers, with only one thought in mind: Welcome and Help, because that's what they came for.
